O the pangs His soul sustained! Shun, not suffering, shame, or loss; Learn of Him to bear the cross. 3 Calvary's mournful mountain climb; There, adoring at His feet, Mark that miracle of time, God's own Sacrifice complete; "It is finished," hear Him cry; Learn of Jesus Christ to die. 4 Early hasten to the tomb Where they laid His breathless All is solitude and gloom; Who hath taken Him away? Christ is risen! He meets our eyes: Saviour, teach us so to rise. Languages: English Tune Title: HOLLING
